Among Us developer InnerSloth announced last year that the game is coming to the PlayStation and Xbox platforms, but is currently still exclusive to Nintendo Switch, PC, and mobile devices. InnerSloth has been quietly working on these versions of the game, and today, the official Twitter account offered a short update on all things Among Us. Sadly, it appears there is no release date to announce for PlayStation or Xbox yet. That will likely prove disappointing for gamers who have been patiently waiting for these ports, but hopefully the game will arrive on PlayStation and Xbox in the near future!
InnerSloth’s Tweet can be found below:

Fans should note that InnerSloth is a fairly small developer, and the team was very taken aback by the huge rise in popularity of the game. While the Among Us updates haven’t come fast enough for some fans and streamers, the team is clearly working hard to deliver new content to keep current players invested and attract new audiences.
Of course, it is worth mentioning that the coronavirus pandemic has also caused many headaches for the video game industry. This year a number of games have been delayed as a direct result, as many developers have had trouble working remotely on the games. It’s impossible to say if the pandemic has had a significant impact on InnerSloth, but many developers have been struggling this year, so fans will have to be patient in the meantime!
Among Us is currently available on iOS, Android, Nintendo Switch, and PC. The game will launch on PlayStation and Xbox in the near future. You can check out all of our previous coverage of the game right here.
